The scientific name of Dictyophora indusiata (Vent.ex Pers) Fisch is Dictyophora indusiata (Vent.ex Pers) Fisch, and its common names include Bamboo Ginseng, Bamboo Fungus, Veil Fungus, Vent.ex Pers, and Bamboo Girl. Dictyophora belongs to the class Gasteromycetes, order Phalloidales, Phalloidaceae, and genus Dictyophora.
Dicophora is a cryptofungus that lives on the roots of dead bamboo. Its shape is slightly like a net-shaped dry white snake skin. It has a dark green cap, a snow-white cylindrical stipe, and is pink. The colorful egg-shaped mushroom stipe has a delicate white mesh skirt at the top of the stipe spreading downward from the cap. The entire mushroom body looks very beautiful, brightly colored, rare and precious, and is known as the "Snow Skirt Fairy" and "Snow Skirt Fairy". "Flower of Mountain Treasures", "Flower of Fungi", "Queen of Fungi". Dictyophora is rich in nutrients, rich in fragrance and delicious in taste. It has been listed as one of the "Eight Treasures of Grass" since ancient times.
The fungi at the base of the Dictyophora fungus are connected to bamboo whips and dead bamboo roots. Long-skirted Dictyophora is mostly produced in high-temperature and high-humidity areas, while short-skirted Dictyophora of the same genus mostly grows in warm and humid environments. The basidiospores germinate and form hyphae, which decompose the organic matter of yuba to obtain nutrients and enter the reproductive growth stage. The mycelium forms numerous hyphae, which expands and develops into a knot-like primordium at its front end. Under suitable conditions, it undergoes After more than a month of growth, the primordium forms a bud, shaped like an egg. When the top of the bud bulges like a peach, it usually cracks from the bulge in the morning on a sunny day. The cap is exposed first, and the stipe extends one after another. At noon, when the stipe reaches a certain height, it stops elongating, and the skirt gradually moves from the inside of the cap. When the relative air humidity is 95, the bacterial skirt grows normally, but the temperature is low and the humidity is too low and the skirt cannot unfold normally. At 4-5 pm, the basidiospores on the cap mature and begin to autolyse, dripping to the ground, while the entire fruiting body shrinks and falls.
The young basidiocarp buds are spherical and have three layers of coating. The outer coating is thin, smooth, off-white or light brown; the middle layer is gelatin; and the inner coating is tough and fleshy. When mature, the coating splits, and the stipe pushes out the cap. The stalk is hollow, 15-20cm high, white, and the surface is composed of spongy pores; the coating is left on the lower part of the stalk to form a pedicle; the cap is born at the top of the stalk. Bell-shaped, the cover surface is uneven and grid-like, and the concave part is densely covered with spores; there is a white mesh curtain under the cover, drooping like a skirt, more than 8cm long; the spores are smooth, transparent, oval, 3-3.5×1.5- 2μ.
Bamboo fungus is a valuable edible fungus and a new star in medicine. It was listed as a "palace tribute" in history. In modern times, it is a famous dish for state banquets and is also a good food therapy. It is rich in nutrients. It has been determined that dried bamboo fungus contains 19.4% crude protein, 2.6% crude fat, and a total soluble nitrogen-free dump of 60.4%, including 4.2% bacterial sugar, 8.4% crude fiber, and 9.3% ash. It has significant effects on treating high blood pressure, neurasthenia, gastrointestinal diseases, etc. It can prevent and fight cancer, lose weight and strengthen the body. It also has a special antiseptic function. In summer, vegetables and meat cooked with bamboo fungus will not go rancid for many days.
The large edible fungi with bright colors and mushroom skirts that grow in moist bamboo forests in autumn belong to the genus Dictyophora in the family Phallaceae. It is divided into long-skirted Dictyophora indusiata and short-skirted Dictyophora indusiata. Its scientific name is Dictyophora indusiata (Vent.ex Pers.) Fischer and D.dupllicata (Bosc) Fischer. It is also known as mushroom, bamboo fungus, bamboo ginseng, bamboo fungus, etc. The bacteria are white, crisp, tender and delicious, and have a preservative effect when combined with other foods. Each 100g of dry product contains 19.4g of crude protein, 2.6g of fat, 60.4g of carbohydrates and a variety of amino acids and vitamins necessary for the human body. Mainly distributed in Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hubei, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangxi, Hainan and other places in China, among which the Zhaotong area of ??Yunnan Province is the most famous.
Bamboo fungus was first successfully domesticated in China in the 1980s. The raw materials used in artificial cultivation include bamboo, segmented wood, sugarcane bagasse, sawdust, etc. There are box cultivation, bed cultivation and open-air bamboo forest cultivation forms. Use buds as material for tissue separation, use potato culture medium, pH value 4.5-5, place at 15-20°C and cultivate for 15-20 days to obtain pure female species, pure hyphae will be white, and will turn pale pink or red when exposed to light Fuchsia.
Then use the cultivation materials to make a culture material and insert it into the mother seed. Cultivate it at the same temperature for 30-45 days to get the original seed. The original seeds can be used directly or further expanded into cultivated species. Cultivation is carried out in early spring when the temperature rises to above 15°C. After inoculation, 3-5cm of soil needs to be covered to retain moisture and produce bacterial cords. Pay attention to keeping the covering soil moist and the air in the cultivation site moist. The optimum temperature for fruiting body formation is 23-26°C. If the cultivation conditions are suitable, fungi will grow in the covering soil in 1 month, buds will appear in 2 months, and harvest can be done in about 3 months. After harvesting, wash the spores, remove the fungi and soil, and dry them in the sun or oven to become commercial products. Those that are white in color, large in body, and free of insect infestations are considered top grade.
How to eat: 1. Soak 50g of dried bamboo garlic in warm water for 10 minutes, wash and cut into about one inch. Cut 500g of ribs into cubes and put them into the pot together with the cut bamboo garlic. , add 550g of 100℃ hot water and cook for 20 minutes, then add salt and MSG and it is ready to eat. 2. Soak 50g of dried bamboo garlic in warm water for 10 minutes, wash it, put the finely chopped pork and add salt and MSG into the hollow of the bamboo garlic, arrange them one by one, steam for 25 minutes, wait until 50℃ Cut into cubes and serve.
Precautions for storage: Do not place it in a place exposed to direct sunlight, or a place with high temperature and humidity. Please consume it as soon as possible after opening.
